  * Add scripts for testing compatability with hackage packages
  So far just a test that all the non-trivial Setup.(l)hs scripts
  compile. This only tests the latest versions, though if one were
  to download a complete archive then one could test them all.
  To speed up the check we skip Setup.hs scripts that have fewer
  than 22 words. Below this cutoff there are no custom hooks and
  it catches the great majority of scripts which greatly speeds up
  the check.

    A ./tests/hackage/
    A ./tests/hackage/check.sh
    A ./tests/hackage/download.sh
    A ./tests/hackage/unpack.sh
